This is making the rounds on e-mail, but I thought I’d post it anyway. First the pic, then the (anonymous) story.

“The good news is that I truly outdid myself this year with my Christmas decorations. The bad news is that I had to take him down after two days. I had more people come screaming up to my house than ever. Great stories. But two things made me take it down.

First, the cops advised me that it would cause traffic accidents, as they almost wrecked when they drove by.

Second, a 55-year-old lady grabbed the 75-pound ladder, almost killed herself putting it against my house, and didn’t realize it was fake until she climbed to the top. She was not happy. By the way, she was one of many people who attempted to do that. My yard couldn’t take it either. I have more than a few tire tracks where people literally drove up my yard.“
